pretty good, except they got us confused with Central and therefore don't understand how the MAC west race is actually shaping up.

Yes I noticed that also. Was referring to the match up

Let's kick some MICHIGAN azz the next 2 weeks!

NIU actually figures out that we should be a run dominant team with Huff and Harbison. We control the time of possession and hit some big plays in a surprisingly easy 34-17 victory.

Glad the game is in DeKalb. Shocker, it's cold and rainy in Kalamazoo tonight.

NIU 35

WMU 14

I love that our crappy weather is always in the Broncos heads. My co worker, a former WMU football player, talks about how bad the weather will be every time we play in DeKalb.

he is spot on most every day after mid October.

I can't wait to see how Goddard plays...his passing stats are incredibly bad and he can't run. He's averaging 3.78 yards per passing attempt...Tommy Fiedler averaged 5.89 and even he knew he wasn't cutout for FBS football. The screwy thing is that I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up completing an 80 yard TD due to a laughable NIU secondary gaffe. NIU should have 9 guys in the box on every 1st/2nd down play.

My prediction would have been right on if we didn't piss all over ourselves....

Pretty close. He looked better than our own QB at passing, in only his 3rd start.

I said Goddard would be 6th on NIU’s depth chart and he massively outplayed Childers lol
